Mr James Mattis's Intimations For USA About Thinking Prosperously Of Staying In The Iran Nuclear Deal.

Defence secretary Mr James Mattis has intimated, that the United State Of America (USA) should think seriously/hesitately of staying in the Iran nuclear deal.

Asked in a Senate hearing whether he thought this was in the national interest, he said that it was.
The White House has not commented on the defence secretary's remarks.

"I believe at this point in time, absent indications to the contrary, it is something that the president should consider staying with," Mr Mattis told the Senate Armed Services Committee in Washington.

"If we can confirm that Iran is living by the agreement, if we can determine that this is in our best interest, then clearly we should stay with it," he added.

He also described the agreement - signed by Iran, the US, the UK, France, China, Russia and Germany - as the "one of the worst deals I've seen".
